“pretty good BBQ”

The building looks like...well, a Barbecue place. That's a good thing. It gives you the sense that you are going to an authentic southern Barbeque restaurant...and your senses would be correct.

The South has some great BBQ but Kelly's offers the largest spread around. If you don't like BBQ they usually have plenty of other food to choose from. The fried chicken is amazing!! You can't beat this buffet. I was raised on eating Dukes BBQ, which is good, but Ole Kelly's has them beat.

This is an all you can eat establishment They have a very wide verity of foods and deserts on the table. The selection is far better than most. They are very popular around 5 to 6:30 in the evening and you have a mob to work through. At 7:00 pm it is less packed with people. They keep the food...
